Are we going to do something about the automated chat restriction plague?

Seriously, false reports are running absolutely rampant and there's only negative effects to the people who are reported, and not to the people whom are reporting.

Please quickly bring the Tribunal back. There have been so, SO many false reports and undeserved chat restrictions not only to me, but to many other people.

Note: I'm not saying "whaa whaa I don't deserve this". I already KNOW I don't deserve it. I just want to bring it to your attention to bring the Tribunal back so people like me would stop suffering at the hands of false reporters.

I agree with op. My point of view is different though. If I am in a game the only time I say something in chat is if I am trying to promote teamwork ( lets do dragon or group top and push) That is it. The problem is if some troll or rager on your team isnt doing well and you say something like this they get mad at you and something like F$%K you noob we cant do dragon. This makes everyone mad and most people would just ignore him but not me. I respond and let him know that he is being toxic and not helping the team win. Usually I end up muting them and reporting them after the game. But they will ALWAYS report you back. Never fails they will report everyone on the team if they arent sure who it was. So when I get chat restricted and I've never cussed someone out or said racist remarks like I see I can only assume I'm getting restricted for trying to convince these trolls to stop flaming. With out any human interaction involved in these auto bans people are just getting chat restricted and ranked bans left and right because they reported a troll and got reported back. Back in the tribunal players could see that the person that reported me was actually the one flaming and I was just trying to get them to stop and I would get pardoned. Their is no pardon with this auto system. You are automatically guilty as soon as the troll reports you back.

TL:DR getting reported for reporting a flamer gets you chat restricted and ranked ban, its a broken automated system with no human interaction involved. Bring back tribunal

What is a chat ban? xD i thought we were supposed to be chat banned way easier so ive purposely been toxic to get reported for it and see what happens... ive gotten three warnings saying we know sometimes you have a bad day but try to be nice blah blah blah and no chat bans xD

What are you basing "SO many people" on? Please keep in mind that one person in every thousand can be going on GD and elsewhere and it'll seem like a lot, because the other 999 players aren't going to go there saying "Hey I didn't get chat banned today!". Not trying to snarky or anything, just trying to get some perspective.

If you truly feel you don't deserve it you can submit a Support Ticket.

Lol all of the people who I have run into who say "I'm chat banned but I don't deserve it" were probably the MOST negative players I have ever met. All 3 (or whatever it is) messages they had during the match were long rants about how bad people were or how they complain about how they are chat banned and Riot is stupid and they never ever say negative things.

Same thing is happening to me. But, I've made a conscious effort to make sure I was positive and happy with the things I would type. Seems like people just report for no reason.
